Cavurotto Argenteria
The location has been home to a store since as early as the 18th century but this, one of the city's senior names in the silver business, has been going since 1919. Nothing much has changed since then, when the town's aristocracy and Jewish community converged here for their silver needs - even the Savoy royal family shopped here.

Vettori
This is one of the big names weighing down the Ponte Vecchio with its treasure chests of gold. You can order pieces to be handcrafted here, but be aware that none of the Ponte Vecchio stores is a workshop any more - they buy and sell the stuff, while generally having the work done elsewhere.

Parenti
Since 1855 the Parenti clan has steered this exclusive store down the decades, providing Florence's high and mighty with jewellery, silverware and gift items. The Italian royal family and Italian aristocrats would often seek out unusual and one-off pieces here. You can emulate them today.

Alessandro Dari
At this store-workshop-museum in a beautiful Renaissance palazzo, you can see Dari bent over his workbench patiently fashioning his wildly inventive gold concoctions, including rings that grow into castles and brooches that recount the fall of the Tower of Babel.
